Crock pot Tip: If you don't have a timer on your crock pot so that your food won't over cook, don't worry, there is a solution for that. Hop on over to a home improvement store and get a timer for your plug. They are around ten or fifteen dollars. You plug your crock pot into that, turn it on and then the timer will come on for when you set it. Most meats you can leave our for two hours without much problem especially if they are very cold in the frig. So you might leave the house at 8, the meal crock pot doesn't turn on until ten and cooks for the 8 hours allotted and is done at six when you walk in the door.
